Hi Boris. Glad you enjoyed the photograph. Thanks!
Linda wasn't enthused about Alaska (grew up in Florida), but she enjoyed it
and wants to go back. Alaska is very big, sparsely populated, and mostly
unspoiled. Temperatures in the first week of July were lows in the 50F's
and highs in the 70F's. Quite comfortable. Only needed a jacket on the one
or two rainy days.
If one likes mountain scenery and maritime locales, Alaska has more of it
everywhere (at least where we went). We drove around 2000 miles and I can
say with exception of Anchorage itself, virtually every mile is
picture-packed.
Next time we go back I want to visit the Wrangell - St. Elias National Park
as well. It is huge and spectacular. We stopped on the outskirts on our 10
day trip.
Enjoyed your dialog! :)

Hi!
From a trip to Alaska 2 weeks ago. This is Holgate Glacier calving in
the
Kenai Fjords National Park. The name describes the sounds as it occurs.
Imagine the crack of a lightning bolt with no flash.

Dialog between me and my wife:
Me: "That's Alaska Fjords".
She: "What is there, good and interesting?"
Me: "No idea, it is cold though"
She: "All the time?"
Jostein, how much was that new kitchen of yours? ;-)
Tom, perhaps, this is the worst case of enablement I've bumped into :-)...
Great shot, perhaps even too great ;-).
Boris
P.S. My wife is laffing.
